Why didn’t the jackals of the press create such an inquisition-like
furor with Patrick Kennedy with his DUI and slurs at the airport?
Mel has been a marked man since he made the
Passion
. I
can’t believe he was off guard enough to get sucked in.

By now few remember the name of Paul Fray. He was a (former) campaign manager for then Governor of Arkansas Bill Clinton. While Clinton was as good a campaigner as he has at parsing words and deeds (lying), he didn’t always get away with lying, and he didn’t always win elections. Such was the case when managed by Mr. Fray.
Some of us will even recall the interview on television with a very sober Paul Fray recalling the very night of Clinton’s loss of the governorship, and Hillary Clinton’s non-drunken outburst at the culpable Mr. Fray: “You F****** Jew B******!” Several witnesses reported seeing and hearing Hillary hollering those words, not drunk, but possessed with that “anger” she is famous for.
p>But the same apologists for Clinton are nowhere to be found for Mel, whom may have a problem that needs intervention. But the apologists failed to intervene with Hillary’s husband, who had a similar problem. br> —
